Organizations need an efficient Incident Response Program if they have to respond with speed and agility to a cyber incident. While such a program should empower businesses to maintain continuous operations; it should also reduce revenue loss, fines and lawsuits, and should help the business build a sound reputation for its brand.

Some of the key components involved in planning and executing the Information Security Plan include Information Security, Governance and Risk. The organization should have a clear map of who has the key responsibility for developing an information security governance program. It should be able to review existing Information Security policies and standards to assess their suitability and adequacy in relation to industry best practices, and be able to update them as appropriate, taking into account compliance recommendations.

All these and more will be the learning a webinar from Compliance4All, a leading provider of professional training for all the areas of regulatory compliance, will be imparting. Michael Redmond, a Consultant, Speaker and Author who conducts ISO Certification Training for PECB, will be the speaker at this 60-minute webinar, which will be organized on April 15.
